(A) Press to change the paper source
Before Printing

•Paper Source Selection Scenarios
Deciding on the usage of the two paper sources to print with minimum reloading of paper
depends mainly on the variety
of the type of paper you use regularly.
•If you print regularly on photo paper as well as on plain paper
If you use photo paper as much as plain paper, you can load photo paper in the Auto Sheet
Feeder and plain paper
in the Cassette. This way, you can switch the paper source according
to the type of paper just by pressing the Paper Feed Switch.
You can also specify the type and size of paper to be fed from the Cassette using the printer
driver.
You can print more efficiently by specifying the type of paper you use regularly this
way, since the paper source will
be switched automatically to the Cassette for this paper.
WNote
•Some types and sizes of paper are not loadable in the Cassette and requires the use of the
Auto Sheet Feeder. See "Paper Handling" on page 8. For details on loading paper, see
"Loading Paper" on page 16.
•For details on printer driver settings, refer to the Printer Driver Guide on-screen manual.
(A) Auto Sheet Feeder: Load paper of various types and sizes, including photo paper.
